Normal is NOT Amazing

Hey guys! Hope you've all had a fantastic Tuesday! It was a little gross here when I woke up this morning, but the sun came out and then it was beautiful! Anyways, I'm sharing this video with you because I think it's great. I know it's a car commercial, but I just find it great. It has a good message. Live life to the fullest. Love passionately, kiss slowly, and enjoy every waking moment of your life. There will come a day when that's not possible for you anymore. So I hope that this video comes as an inspiration to you. Maybe it will spark something inside of you and you'll go out and do something great. Or, you may just get up and go to work tomorrow or school--which is great as well. Whatever you're doing, do it BIG and to the fullest of your potential !

Just Chill

Just in case your Monday was a little more hectic than you would have liked, here is a playlist for you to just sit and stare at the ceiling and unwind from your awful Monday (or great Monday).

Have a Great Monday!

Last week was chaotic for me and so was this weekend. I hope that you enjoyed your weekend though! Here is a little something that should get you pumped for Monday. Never give up on your dreams. http://iwastesomuchtime.com/on/?i=66963

This is Amazing

Please take a few minutes out of your day to watch this film because it is absolutely amazing. Well done in every way. We really need to keep in mind that what we say does effect people--even if they don't act like it. I knew I grew up and have had to go through some stuff. We are all brought up differently--no two people are alike. Don't make anyone feel like an outcast or like they aren't good enough. Name calling actually strikes deep inside of us. It cuts us from within. I had a teacher in high school that told us a story from his high school days about a kid that used to get picked on for his weight. Before graduation, the kid had committed suicide. No one ever needs to or should go through that torment. Life is hard enough without some punks making it harder. If you or someone you know is getting bullied, stay strong and don't let their words get to you. I know it's hard, believe me, I know. You can pull through though. You are stronger than you give yourself credit for. Tell someone. Get help. Hurting yourself isn't the answer. We are all unique and God created us in His image and he loves each and every one of us--even though it may not seem like it sometimes. Keep your head up. Things will always look up.

Smile Today

I've been looking for things all day to post on my blog (even when I was in class).  Then, I started reading these stories. It really makes you stop and think and just be thankful for everything you have. So, I hope this makes you smile today :)

From Black and White to CoLoR

I've come across these pictures many times online and for some reason am just now feeling like I should share them with you. I think it's cool we have the technology to do this now. I always forget that in black and white films, they saw everything in color just like we see now...weird...

...and here's the link, in case you want to see the photos a bit bigger: http://iwastesomuchtime.com/on/?i=66449

Heart Melting

While stumbling today, I came across this absolutely adorable video. Now, I know there are lots of different parenting styles; however, there are actually a lot of parents that are, in fact, ruining their kids...in a sense. Not all parenting is the right kind of parenting. I could go on for days talking about that, but this video is about a father who obviously has a very special connection with his baby girl. Just watch this video and you'll see what I mean.

Harlem Shake Nation Sweep

So I'm sure you've all heard of or at least seen this new thing called the Harlem Shake that is literally sweeping the nation. I'm pretty sure it's gone viral over the past week. Tons of videos have been made. The question is which ones are really worth watching? Well, besides the men's swim team's version, here is a compilation of some other pretty great ones:

What is Love?

Love is a complicated feeling. Some might mistake it with loathing I once heard...but love itself is a wonderful place to be. If it's with the right person and at the right time for you. Love is wonderful. Love is everything good and bad in the world. Unconditional love can be hard to come by though. Here is a little video I found on one of my websites I always go on. It brought tears to my eyes to see how unconditionally this man loves his wife. I only hope I can find a love like theirs:

If you're 20...or if you're not

How cute is this Italian hotel that was built inside an abandoned grotto? Absolutely adorable.

Found this, of course on StumbleUpon :)
